<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1545381, member: 26302&quot;]I would concur and add Colchis from the Eastern Black Sea region. Its the site where the golden fleece was found. An exchange student I had once was from Kutaisi, the closest city to ancient Colchis. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Myself, I am dranw today to the Silk Road and Central Asia mainly, but still collect Byzantine, interesting Roman, ancient Chinese, and occasional world coins. I just got a Lannathai 4 baht silver bar from medieval Thailand, (well ordered it, has not arrived yet).</p><p><br /></p><p>Overall ancients attract me as a way of forcing me to learn more about ancient history. When you own a tangible artifact of the culture you are naturally driven to learn more about it. That and the sheer beauty of some coins. Look at some early Sassanian coins, like Shapur or Vahran II and tell me those are not works of art![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
